Re: Have you ever read the Bible?
Yes, I have read the Bible.. (Years where I couldn’t put it down, and want to return to that again.) Your post reflects the truth somewhat, but because many Christians don't even agree it's worse than that even. When I first became born again and then since.. I have been astounded to learn that so many people that say they are Christian, and/or that go to church religiously have never read the Bible. Some even.. oh this one in particular.. this woman that was a big part of her church was literally beside herself when I asked her if she had ever read the Bible (I asked because I did have a suspicion that she did not.), and she had this most appalled look on her face. At first I thought she was offended that I asked her that, and in a way she was I guess, but she went on to say, "No I have never read the Bible.. why would I need to read the Bible," and then she immediately slipped into another subject altogether. Astoundingly most Catholics have never read the Bible; not even those in Catholic private schools. It wasn’t until late last century that Catholic churches began services in English.. not all but many while some still give service in Latin. They are not to be isolated though because they are very much not alone. Most people, too, in online 82879 that say they’re Christian I don’t believe really are. It’s just something they’re used to saying because their families have been celebrating Christmas since birth lol. Why did you ask the forum? Entertainment or something on your mind?
